I always miss with my arty when using "F" command and aiming. Is my aim lousy? The computer never misses, but I always hit the wrong square even if my crosshairs are aiming at a unit in a neighbouring square.

With the artillery pointer, the impulse is to point the center of the crosshairs over the square you want to hit. This is wrong. Actually, you have to point the upper left part of the icon on the square you want to hit.
